I know!

I'm so confused how they lost their 2 best players in the transition....

Maybe EG will pick them up.

What happens to the rest of their sc2 team? They had 5-6 players other than Cruncher. This is definitely a step up for Complexity even without Kiwi and Slush but they were definitely the top ROOT players kinda confused why you would acquire a team and let their best players get away

was my favourite team by a mile.. ROOT in front of a name looks much better then COL.. fucking armyrank.. they should do something about that.

I doubt KiWi or Slush would have any interesting in joining EG, given IdrA's remarks about them in the past.

With TLO on hiatus... who knows... that would be soooo awesome!

Is the ROOT Gaming house still alive?

Idra BM's everyone.

Besides, I think SirScoots said they had a full roster, a while ago ;/

i'm not completely sure...
did the whole team ROOT join and kiwikaki/slush are teamless now,
or did only the players (and staff) switch and kiwikaki/slush are bascially the new old ROOT?

You're not the only one.

I'm surprised complexity went through with the deal without Kiwi and Slush. I can't imagine cutting any deal that didn't include those two.

Idra has had choice words for Machine and Lzgamer in the past too now they are teammates. Can't take things said on the internet too seriously

Sad to see this. I loved the personality of ROOT as a team, and seems like they're going to lose at least part of that in the move into Complexity. Also very sad to see the split-up. Hope Kiwi and Slush go to good team(s) though.

Honestly not suprised that Kiwi didn't go/resign. Hes been one of the best players for a while now on a team that can't afford to give him a salary (at least i believe). Going to be very interested to see where he ends up.

Ah, ROOT was my favorite team. Oh well, I'm sure there was a good reason for it. Good luck guys <3

My predictions; Slush probably goes to FXO and Kiwi I can see ending up in EG or Liquid. hmm

The same was said before idra joined EG.


As far as the pickup, ehh...The only really solid performer is drewbie. I'm glad kiwi and slush made the decision they made although sad at the same time. I thought root was trying to make their own brand, and didn't want to sell out :/

Solid pick up for coL, i guess there looking for the long term. With that ROOT roster going to coL, they arent really top skill players there. But they will be by next year easily. Good move for long term status.
